Potash One has assembled a world-class Solution Mining Leadership Team and a Process Leadership Team to ensure the best available technology and expertise are applied to the project, resulting in less risk, lower capital costs and optimizing operating costs.
Solution Mining Leadership Team

Swenson Technology, Inc.
Swenson Technology and its licensees worldwide have the most experience of any company in the design of evaporators and crystallizers used in the production of potash from solution mining. Swenson technology has not only been part of potash processing but also has set the standard for evaporation equipment in Saskatchewan from the beginning of the industry there. Most operations utilize Swenson technology in evaporation and crystallization, with installations at Mosaic Belle Plaine and PCS Cory. Swenson's background in the design of crystallization equipment for an extensive array of industrial applications is unrivaled. Swenson will play a key role in process design as the evaporation-crystallization process for Potash One's Legacy Project is defined.
Both Leadership Teams are developing basic designs and generating fundamental deliverables such as trade-off study documents, design criteria, mass and energy balances, flowsheets (process flow diagrams or PFDs), process descriptions and scope of work for on-going, along with more detailed engineering work. It is expected that these deliverables will be available in December 2008 and will provide a design basis for engineering work resulting in a pre-feasibility study report.
